Consumers are increasingly demanding mobile data services, but when roaming across borders, high traffic charges put more pressure on consumers.
  • WIFI mode is limited by the coverage of hotspots, the security of use, poor mobile usability and cost (quite a large area of WIFI is not free, and the cost is very high) and other factors, can only meet the limited user needs; and mobile networks undoubtedly have WIFI in terms of mobility, coverage, and security. The main problem with the incomparable advantages is the cost of use.
